Biology Questions

QuestionAnswer
What is photosynthesis? Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
Where does photosynthesis occur in plant cells? Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.
What are the main inputs of photosynthesis? The main inputs are light energy, carbon dioxide (CO2), and water (H2O).
What are the main outputs of photosynthesis? The main outputs are glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2).
How is light energy used in photosynthesis? Light energy is captured by chlorophyll and other pigments and used to drive the chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose.
What is the general equation for photosynthesis? The general equation is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy. The general equation is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy.
What does glucose produced in photosynthesis provide for the plant? Glucose provides the plant with stored chemical energy that can be used for growth, reproduction, and other vital processes.
Why is oxygen a byproduct of photosynthesis? Oxygen is a byproduct because it is released during the splitting of water molecules in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.
How can models help illustrate photosynthesis? Models, such as diagrams, chemical equations, and conceptual models, can help illustrate how light energy is converted into chemical energy and how the inputs and outputs of photosynthesis are related.
What role do chlorophyll and other pigments play in photosynthesis? Chlorophyll and other pigments capture light energy, which is then used to drive the chemical reactions of photosynthesis.
What is the importance of photosynthesis for life on Earth? Photosynthesis is crucial because it provides the primary source of energy for nearly all living organisms and releases oxygen into the atmosphere, which is essential for the respiration of most life forms.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
